Slam Dunk, Start with a Perfect Three-Pointer

at the same time.

There are more and more students watching.

The surrounding audience looked excited.

"Tatsuhiko is playing against Mitsui, it's a good show!"

"Come on! Tatsuhiko!"

"How could Mitsui defend against Tatsuhiko! Come on Tatsuhiko, you are the ace of Shohoku.

"Can Sakuragi Hanamichi hold Kaede Rukawa? It's hard."

"Don't even mention it, Sakuragi Hanamichi's progress is really fast. He used to be the king of exits, but now he can basically play the whole game, and his defensive efficiency has also improved a lot."

The Shohoku students outside the venue were discussing~.

Haruko and two girlfriends are long overdue.

Her gaze was on the scoreboard.

Although Mitsui side score slightly ahead.

But the score between the two sides did not widen to 10 points.

Haruko was a little surprised.

"What's going on here? Is Tatsuhiko-san scoring alone?"

"No, I don't talk much about using guys."

Mito Yohei on the side explained.

Nozomi Takamiya and others stood behind Mito Yohei.

In the past, they totally scoffed at Sakuragi training basketball.

How could that fellow Sakuragi hold on.

Basketball is not something that can be played with passion.

But now, they have changed that mind.

Although Sakuragi still has a lot of times, like a beginner.

The performance on the court is very immature.

But I have to say.

Sakuragi has gotten better and better.

Now Sakuragi is more and more like a basketball player.

At the beginning, with the mood of mocking Sakuragi, several people from Sakuragi's Gang came to watch the game.

Watch what the Shohoku players do on the field.

Also gradually became a loyal fan of Shohoku.

Although every time he said that he wanted to see Sakuragi's ugly face, he mocked Sakuragi.

But they are now more willing to go and cheer for Shohoku.

Nozomi Takamiya poked her nose and teased.

"Sakuragi is actually playing against Kaede Rukawa, it seems that he will be taught a lesson again."

"Kaede Rukawa's offense is really sharp."

Mito Yohei sighed with emotion,

"Sakuragi's defense is still too average, and he can't defend against Kaede Rukawa's offense at all."

Mito Yohei and the others leaned on the railing, becoming a melon-eating crowd.

Always watch Shohoku games.

Under the influence of their ears and eyes, they also have a certain understanding of every player in Shohoku.

It's not just limited to the nickname given by Sakuragi.

on the pitch.

Kaede Rukawa holds the ball and directly chooses a single.

This is the way he is most familiar with playing.

He himself is a sharp tackler and scorer.

Kaede Rukawa changed direction two times in a row, directly revealing Sakuragi's center of gravity.

"not good!"

Sakuragi screamed inwardly.

In this defense, he has completely lost the best defensive position.

Naturally, Kaede Rukawa will not give up this opportunity.

He made a nice frontal change, skimming right past Sakuragi's right hand.

"Damn it!"

Sakuragi roared angrily.

But still can't change the result of being passed by Kaede Rukawa.

But what happened next was beyond everyone's expectations.

The passed Sakuragi went straight to Kaede Rukawa.

"Don't try to score! Dead fox!"

How fast Sakuragi exploded with full force.

I'm afraid Kaede Rukawa can explain it later.

Kaede Rukawa, who had already thrown Sakuragi in three positions, was about to go straight to a one-handed dunk.

However, there was a gust of wind coming from behind him.

It took only 2 seconds for the chasing Sakuragi to complete the defense from the bottom corner three-point line to the penalty area.

"Sakuragi's outbreak is terrible!"

Ayako couldn't believe it.

Just Sakuragi's return speed from the corner three-point line to the penalty area.

Even the fastest speed recognized by Shohoku, Miyagi can't do it!

"Is this the speed at which Sakuragi explodes at full strength? A bit too fast.

Kogure on the side was stunned.

Although Sakuragi will play fast break with Tatsuhiko and others in the game.

But I have to say.

The speed of the fast break can only be said to be quite satisfactory.

And now.

The speed of defense displayed by Sakuragi.

Even Miyagi can only bow down.

Compared with everyone's surprise, Coach Anzai was all smiles.

Coach Anzai had already heard about Sakuragi's "glorious deeds" when he first entered Shohoku.

Coach Anzai at the time didn't think so.

For freshmen like Sakuragi, there are eight if not ten every year.

However, when he saw Sakuragi, he changed his mind completely.

Sakuragi's talent is really outstanding.

bounce, height, strength, regiment

In terms of talent alone, the entire Shohoku except Tatsuhiko.

No one can compare to Sakuragi.

Even Kaede Rukawa, who has super scoring ability.

In terms of talent alone, it is far inferior to Sakuragi.

"It seems that the core inside players for next year have also been found!"

Look back to the field.

Sakuragi, who had chased and defended in place, immediately jumped high.

He was going to block Kaede Rukawa directly from the flank.

"Watch my gorilla swatting flies!"

Sakuragi yelled and stretched out the cover directly.

Kaede Rukawa frowned.

Sakuragi, is he so fast in defense?

I have clearly opened up more than three positions of Sakuragi.

But unexpectedly, Sakuragi caught up.

Seeing that Sakuragi has blocked all his slam dunk routes.

Without any choice.

Kaede Rukawa put his hand directly to his chest.

Then he slid under Sakuragi's elbow.

"Can this escape the cover?"

Sakuragi was a little dumbfounded.

Tatsuhiko didn't teach this at the time.

How can you change direction at will when attacking?

This is a bit too difficult.

Kaede Rukawa took advantage of Sakuragi's hesitation.

He seized this fleeting opportunity and made ten beautiful tie-bar Kang layups.

goal!

Two points in hand!

Kaede Rukawa landed with a cold face.

"Idiot! You should go back and practice more!"

"Damn fox, you wait for me!"

Sakuragi said with some bitterness.

The ball went to the side of the bench.

Sakuragi threw the ball straight into Yasuda's hands.

Then he trotted all the way again, and ran into the restricted area.

It's a familiar plot again.

Anzai watched himself smothered by Miyagi's pressing defense.

Again he passed the ball straight into Tatsuhiko's hands.

"Come here, Tatsuhiko!

Mitsui spread his arms wide while striking a rather iconic defensive stance.

"Tatsuhiko! I won't let you pass the ball easily! I promise!"

"That's a bit difficult, Mitsui-senpai."

A small smile appeared on Tatsuhiko's mouth.

With Mitsui alone, he can't control himself at all.

Suddenly, Tatsuhiko lowered his center of gravity directly to prepare for a breakthrough.

“Super Start!”

Tatsuhiko chose the skill to launch a super start.

Mitsui only felt a gust of wind blowing past him.

"Oops! What a quick first step!"

Mitsui frowned.

Turn around and look.

Tatsuhiko was already in the box.

"Don't try to score!"

Kaede Rukawa and Miyagi immediately got in front of Tatsuhiko.

It is the tactics they discussed.

Tatsuhiko's breakthrough kill was too much.

Shoyo's Mitsuru Nagano and Tsuji Takeshi's Wu Daiyouhe felt the deepest.

Tatsuhiko is like crossing the road.

Consecutive dribble past Mitsuru Nagano no less than twenty times.

Even calling Fujima for help wasn't enough.

Facing Tatsuhiko with a two-team.

With little hesitation, Tatsuhiko pulled Mitsuru Nagano and Fujima straight away.

Although Mitsuru Nagano's height and defensive skills.

Definitely not the best player on the Shoyo team.

But his ability to assist defense and make up defense is definitely the best.

It is also because of this that he can secure Shoyo's starting position.

But facing Tatsuhiko, he was completely powerless.

It is for this reason.

Only the drafted player team has developed such a defensive plan.

Tatsuhiko's perimeter 3 was given to Hisashi Mitsui to cover it all the way.

And once reached the inside line.

It is multi-person defense at all costs.

Tatsuhiko couldn't score even with a foul.

Seeing that the breakthrough space in front of him has been blocked by Kaede Rukawa and Miyagi.

Tatsuhiko passed the ball directly to Sakuragi who was left unmarked in the middle.

"Vote! Sakuragi!"

Tatsuhiko roared.

Mitsui, who could have caught up in time, didn't move.

"Sakuragi, how can he have a shot? Even if he is allowed to shoot, he will definitely not be able to score."

Sakuragi seized the opportunity and jumped up and shot directly.

A direct hit from the basketball!

in an instant.

The entire Shohoku arena erupted.

Except for Haruko, Ayako and Tatsuhiko.

Everyone stared blankly at Sakuragi who made the shot.

"Who threw that ball just now!"

"Sakuragi Hanamichi's talent is a bit scary, has he learned how to shoot in such a short time?"

"The key is that his posture is also very standard, this is the posture that shooting should have.

The audience outside the stadium were talking loudly.

Several members of Sakuragi's Gang also looked at each other in blank dismay.

This guy has only been practicing shooting for a few days, but he can already use it?

Coach Anzai smiled and looked at Sakuragi who was surrounded by everyone.

"Very good, I didn't expect Sakuragi to have already practiced shooting?"

He felt a little relieved.

These kids at Shohoku are good kids.

Their desire for victory is no less than that of any other team.

And under the leadership of Tatsuhiko and Akagi.

Shohoku's record is also getting better and better.

Coach Anzai sighed.

It's a pity that his body no longer allows himself.

If his body can last for a few years.

Perhaps at that time, he also had the opportunity to see a dynasty of Shohoku.

*0

Coach Anzai smiled again and said softly.

"Team Shohoku is really getting stronger!"

As time passed by every minute and every second.

competition is over.

The final score is set at 80:100.

The bench team lost the game by 20 points.

But I have to say, this is already a very proud achievement.

To know.

The current Shohoku is no longer the big team it used to be.

They are now the top four in Kanagawa Prefecture.

The team that leads the superpower Shoyo by more than 10 points.

The achievements of the substitute team are also impressive enough.

But what made the surrounding audience a little confused.

After the whole game, Tatsuhiko seems to be

Almost no strong desire to attack.

More often, Tatsuhiko chooses to break through and pass the ball to his teammates.

If Tatsuhiko turns on the scoring mode, I am afraid that the 20-point difference can be tied within a few minutes.

pause time.

The audience on the sidelines were a little surprised.

"If Tatsuhiko lets go of the singles shot, I don't think the right pick is right.

"The first team is definitely not good, the main thing is Tatsuhiko is too strong."

"He should be practicing for these substitutes of Shohoku, otherwise why would he not attack."

"But don't tell me, Tatsuhiko's point guard is really good, and he can control the rhythm of the game perfectly.

Although the score gap is as much as 20 points.

But almost all viewers firmly believe that.

As long as Tatsuhiko takes a shot, with his scoring ability, he will win with a high probability.

Akagi off the court was a little emotional.

This guy Tatsuhiko is really special.

..0

As Shohoku's true ace.

The most well-known is Tatsuhiko's super accurate three-pointers and beautiful and elegant slam dunks on defensive counterattacks.

And his defensive ability.

He can always contribute steals frequently.

Let the players facing him completely lose the chance to score.

But today they just opened their eyes.

Unexpectedly, Tatsuhiko's point guard ability is not bad at all.

Not only can he grasp the position of his teammates, but also send exquisite passes.

It is also able to revitalize the entire Shohoku team.

Even Kogure and Yasuda, who were not very accurate in shooting before.

Both scored double digits in this game.

This also proves that Tatsuhiko's organizational skills are indeed very good.

Ayako on the side blinked his eyes and tilted his head, feeling a little unbelievable.

The positive selection can only lead the substitute by 20 points.

When did their substitute players become so strong.

bench side.

Although the defensive pressure they encountered was not very great.

But the hit rate has indeed improved a lot.

Especially Sakuragi.

Near the free throw line, when no one is defending.

The hit rate can even reach more than 90%.

Is this the same Sakuragi Hanamichi she knew before?

Mitsui took a deep breath, with a displeased expression on his face.

"When did this group of guys become so good?"

His original plan was to win by 50 points.

After all, they are all teammates on the same team, so save them some face.

"I don't know, but it does seem to have become stronger."

Miyagi wiped the sweat off his cheeks with his hands, and said with deep understanding.

He has the same idea as Mitsui, only one Tatsuhiko is the opponent.

But never expected.

In the end, they only won by 20 points.

As for the bench scoring, only a fraction of it came from Tatsuhiko.

Most of the rest comes from each teammate.

Almost every substitute player who played scored.

And here they are.

The score is concentrated on himself and Kaede Rukawa.

Judgment between the two!

Akagi muttered to himself with a solemn face.

"Is this the magic that comes with Tatsuhiko?"

Not only let teammates play better and better, but the more they shoot, the more confident they are.

more importantly.

The players on the team with Tatsuhiko, especially Sasaoka and Kuwata who are usually very weak in physical strength.

Even after finishing the game, he was not as tired as he looked.

It even feels like their physical exertion, not even as much as Shiozaki, Kakuta.

Shiozaki and Kakuta had already sat in the rest area to rest.

The two looked out of breath.

This proves that the physical exertion of the two is definitely not small.

Coach Anzai had a smile on his face.

Tatsuhiko has completely mobilized everyone in Shohoku's offense, and it's very good to play like this off the bench.

Tatsuhiko sat off the court.

Feel the benefits brought by the power of implication.

He was a little emotional.

"Whoever will be my teammate in the future will be the prettiest boy on the court!"

It is worthy of being rewarded by the system.

See if there are other things that are better.

After this game, the popularity value has only increased by one hundred. Could it be related to his performance?

The better the performance, the more popularity you get?

With this in mind, now he is really looking forward to the game against Kainan. .
